Bird species and population and related environmental data from POLAR STAR along the coast of Antarctica from 1983-01-23 to 1983-02-16 (NCEI Accession 8600194)
Bird species and population data, and related environmental data were collected from a transect following the coast of Antarctica. Data are contained in three sequential files: ANT 283, ANT 383 and ANT 483; data were originally recorded in EBCDIC. Five record types are included: location, environmental (wind, clouds, pressure, salinity), sea ice coverage, a comment record, and bird census record (age, species, sex, color, plumage, molt, behavior, habitat, and count). These data were collected by George L. Hunt at the University of California, Irvine. The documentation includes a map of the transect studied and a detailed description of the record format.
